The Facts:
You would think $10 million would be enough to persuade Owens to learn the Cowboys'playbook from cover to cover. But he didn't. ... Within the organization, Owens' lack of familiarity with the playbook wasn't a secret. Players knew. Coaches knew. Front-office personnel knew. After all, Tony Romo and others had to tell him the plays during practice, on occasion, so it surprised few when he wasn't sure what to do during games.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Morning News staffer Jean-Jacques Taylor went on to note that team officials believe things will change this year -- due in large part to the change in coaching staffs. They also say his second year in this offense -- new OC Jason Garrett is supposed to keep much of the terminology the same -- will give T.O. a better understanding of the offense than he had last year. ... Staying awake during meetings might help, too.
